established in 2001 in Reggio Emilia by christian gasparini, NAT OFFICE

turns its attention to urban and architectural planning (from design to
landscape), considering it placed in a dialectic relationship between man and
nature that cannot be deluded.

the Architecture becomes a medium
between Nature and Technology, able to give a sense to the antropic presence in
the nature.

the plan is thought like a complex
and dynamic instrument, that allows the
physic-perceptive and materic link between places and persons.

the place is not an abstract
entity, but the essence and the possibility of the lifetime in common. its
geographical, historical, materic and bioclimatics features are trace to read,
for fitting in with a context or replanning it, always being present the
necessity to attend, where it is possible, with minimal elements, that may have
a great significance, to assure the use of space like a living principle.

christian gasparini graduates in architecture at the
polytechnic of milan, where he teaches and works as researcher of urban and
architectural planning since 1998 and as adjunct professor since 2007,
dedicating its activity to the architectural and urban transformation plans of
sea ports and railway stations, cultural centers such as media libraries and

2000 in chile, being selected for the international workshop ‘valparaiso del
chile: ideas y proyectos por el casco historico’, that followed the election of
Valparaiso to the status of humanity heritage by unesco. the plan ‘margin as
connection’ was exposed successfully at valparaiso and later, following a
traveling exhibition, in many Italian and european faculties of architecture
(ferrara, roma, napoli, genova, milano, lisbona).

private and public architecture realizations are
intertwined with the research on modular structures, to be assembled and
disassembled in different configurations and are dedicated to different areas:
museums, schools, commercial, residential, religious, landscaping.
